ASL Interpreted Art Symposium
Live American Sign Language interpretation will be provided for this program. Coinciding with the American Folk Art Museum's exhibition "Morris Hirshfield Rediscovered," the symposium "Unexpected Partners: Self-Taught Art and Modernism in Interwar America" will discuss Hirshfield’s work and contentious reception in the broader context of modernism’s complex interchange with self-taught art during the mid-twentieth century. Talks will highlight the important contributions that self-taught artists made to the development of modernism in the United States, redressing these artists’ gradual exclusion from the art-historical canon in the postwar era and fleshing out a more representative narrative of American art. Speakers include: Bill Anthes, Esther Adler, Susan Davidson, Julia Bryan-Wilson, Lynne Cooke, Jane Kallir, Jennifer Jane Marshall, Richard Meyer, Angela Miller, Rodrigo Moura, Marci Kwon, Valérie Rousseau, Nicole Smythe-Johnson and Brooke Wyatt.
